The quilt club has grown from a few members meeting in homes, to a large group renting the Garfield Grange building. The group claims to be the oldest documented quilt club in the state of Oregon. Many of today’s members are related to the founding members of the club. The club meets every Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and most Wednesday evenings. Dues are $1 each year. The members hand quilt for others for a fee, depending on the size of the quilt.

I have 3 good size boxes of monthly quilting magazines that belonged to my mother in law. They are too good to recycle. Estacada does not have a home ec program to give them to. Would you be interested in having them?

Sigrid, I don’t know if you have received a reply to your question, but Skip-A-Week does accept donations of quilting magazines. We quilt at the Grange every Wednesday from 10 to 3. You could bring them up to the Grange any Wednesday.
Thanks, Jackie Steinkellner

IMPORTANT: Many of the events currently listed on our calendar have been cancelled due to the current situation realted to COVID-19. If in doubt, pleas contact the event organizer.

Even our small corner of the world is not immune from the worldwide impact of COVID-19 (also known as the coronavirus). A great many of our community partners have understandably canceled their community events and closed their doors in an effort to play a role in slowing the spread of this disease.

Accordingly, the Community Connection's Board of Directors has concluded that it is in the best interest of our community to temporarily suspend our promotion of community events until such time as the call for social distancing has been lifted.

We anticipate resuming our email newsletter later this spring, and we are fully committed to continuing our mission to promote social, educational and service events throughout our community. In the meantime, we encourage everyone in our community to go out of your way to support our local small businesses, many of which will be impacted by the social and economic effects of this pandemic.

Thank you for your continued support. We wish everyone in our community good health during this uncertain time.
